He noted the process is still evolving and left open the possibility that some nonprofit funding could be restored as the budget is finalized. “We have been dealing with a very tight budget wor kup for the coming year. As it stands, we are not raising taxes or water rates, and we are making very strategic decisions about how to arrive at a balanced budget, as we are required to do so by law,” said McCall.
